Godfather Of Champions

The Champions League broke into the quarter-finals, and the Nottingham Forest coached by Tony Dunn also made a historic breakthrough-they passed the quarter-finals and advanced to the semi-finals. This is Dunn's best result in the FA Cup since he coached the team.

But when the FA Cup entered the sixth round, Dunn had already given up the strategy of letting half of the first team and half of the youth team play together, and sent a full first team lineup. This change has never happened in the previous few seasons, so that their sixth-round rivals Manchester City, the Premier League team, were surprised and eventually lost the game. This change also indicates that Dunn's importance to the FA Cup this season-the Nottingham Forest in the past always left early and became a spectator. This time they will be the protagonist of the FA Cup last laugh.

However, in this way, the team's third-line combat will inevitably be affected in physical fitness and state. In the league, the ranking of the Forest team has always hovered between five and three, which seems to be a bit far away from the league's first position.

In mid-March, some media analyzed that the goal of Nottingham Forest this season was not to defend the championship, but to win at least one championship in the Champions League and the FA Cup.

"I think the Champions League can be counted as Tony Dunn’s traditional advantage project... At his most glorious time, he led the Forest team to win this event for two consecutive seasons. He became famous because he led it for the first time. The team returned to the Champions League and reached the final and almost dragged Barcelona off the horse. Now it has been nearly six years since he last won the championship. If he still claims to be a successful head coach, Then he must not be willing to continue to extend the six-year blank period..."

Some experts analyzed the TV program very seriously. It seemed that he was saying so well that people could not help but nod their heads in agreement.

"So, for the sake of the Champions League, Coach Dunn will give up the league... As long as the league can get the top four places to guarantee the Champions League next season, it will be fine."

But will Dunn really give up the league?

On March 16, Nottingham Forest tied with Manchester United 0:0 away. After the game, a reporter raised this issue.

Dunn laughed after hearing this question at the press conference. Instead of answering the opponent's question directly, he smiled and asked, "Should you bet against me? Bet Nottingham Forest will win the league championship."

The reporter shook his head: "I'm not interested in betting, Mr. Dunn. Your team is six points behind Arsenal, the league leader..."

Before he finished speaking, another person raised his arm and stood up: "I'm willing to bet!"

Everyone present turned their attention to this person. After seeing who he is, everyone laughed knowingly.

"I'm willing to make this bet with you, Mr. Dunn."

"It turned out to be Mr. Carl Spike. What? You didn't lose enough the last time you lost your hair?" Dunn saw Spike's big bald head at a glance.

Spike didn't mind, he touched the top of his bald head, and then shrugged: "I made a mistake last time. Now that I think of it, the total of 20 goals in the season is too few... But this time it's different. Your team is six points away from Arsenal. There are still three teams between you and Arsenal. In addition, you plan to fight in the third line. If you can still win the league title, I..."

"Are you going to eat the table?" Dun En interjected suddenly, which caused everyone to burst into laughter.

Spike didn't expect Dunn to say that. He was taken aback for a moment, and then he laughed with the person next to him: "You can always come up with such fantastic ideas, Mr. Dunn. But I find it very interesting, if I lose Just eat the table, you are going to lose, eat the table too?"

Dunn opened his hands: "That's natural. If I lose, I will eat a table and ensure that it will be broadcast live on TV. There will be no jokes."

The Manchester United coach Martin O'Neal next to him was a little surprised. He thought Dunn was just joking with each other. He even wanted to remind Dun En to make him pay attention to every word he said.

There was also a commotion among the reporters-eating the table? Is this something humans can do? Some reporters want to make a round, for example, Pierce Bruce wants to draw everyone's attention by asking questions. But Dunn smiled and looked at Karl Spike, turning a blind eye to Bruce's raised hand.

"Very well, I accept this bet." Karl Spike seemed to think that he would never have the opportunity to eat the table, so he nodded and agreed.

Dunn snapped his fingers: "It's great. Are you ready for a table, Mr. Spike."

Spike was not to be outdone: "I think what you should consider is to find an excuse to push the bet on the table."

"This will not bother you, Mr. Spike." Dunn made a gesture of asking to sit down.

The reporters are in a mess. Now they don’t care about the 0:0 boring battle. The questioning of O’Neill is more like a routine matter. Everyone wants to end this tasteless press conference as soon as possible and give back to the press. To publish this "gambling game that has never been seen since the establishment of the Premier League".

There is no shortage of betting in the Premier League, but betting on the table is indeed something that has never been done before... How should the table be eaten? Whether it is wood, stone, glass, stainless steel or aluminum alloy... there is no way to eat it.

So everyone is more willing to believe that this bet will eventually evolve into a loser trying to refuse to recognize the bet, or simply shut up and not pretend to be grandson. As for the winner, it will do everything possible to make the loser embarrassed. This table must be eaten! And if you don’t eat, I will send you a table and contact the media for you...

The two of them will eventually become like this. Anyway, if you have news to write about, you can make money, and readers have fun reading it. Everyone is happy, why not do it?

As for what will happen to Tony Dunn and Carl Spike, they are both clever people and they must be able to pass the test, so don’t bother everyone...

In fact, without the help of these media to promote, Karl Spike had already exaggerated the matter in his own show that evening. The cameraman he took took a picture of the entire process and took pictures of the reactions of others present when they heard the incident, interspersed through editing, just like the most commonly used montage technique in movies. Let the audience do not seem to be watching the news, but more like watching a suspenseful movie.

In the show, Spike triumphantly analyzed the reasons why he dared to accept such a bet: "...Tony Dunn’s team is now six points behind Arsenal, which is ranked first. It looks like the points are almost the same, but in the end. In the eight rounds of the league, Chelsea and Arsenal are the strong teams that the Forest needs to face. In addition, two of the eight opponents are teams on the verge of relegation. Do you know what this means? Chelsea need to win the Champions League. Qualified for World War II, now they are ranked fifth, they will not easily let the Nottingham Forest at home. And Arsenal ranked first, Wenger has no reason to give Dunn a chance to'win six points in a game'. We It is often said that in the final stage of the league, the most dangerous opponents are not the champion contenders, but the relegated teams. The championship is only for honor, and the relegation is for survival. Those teams that survive can always break out at the most critical moment. Unexpected energy... Does Mr. Tony Dunn think his team can easily beat the 17th Portsmouth and 18th Sunderland in the league? In comparison, Arsenal’s last eight This opponent is much weaker. Poor Nottingham Forest needs to fight on the third line in the final sprint... In fact, what I want to see most is that Nottingham Forest reached the finals in both the FA Cup and the Champions League, but all lost. Because of physical breakdown, he only won fifth place-to play in the UEFA Cup next season. This helped Mr. Tony Dunn a favor. Isn't he only the FA Cup and UEFA Cup champions who have not won it? This But it’s a good opportunity. For Mr. Dunn’s team, such an opportunity is not always met..."

"Then I will order a table with the latest style and the best quality for Mr. Dunn from IKEA, hope he likes it."

Dunn did not participate in the war of words. His column only wrote about the match against Manchester United and wished Martin O’Neal a happy time at Old Trafford. Manchester United’s poor performance nowadays is not the main reason for not being able to rank first. The responsibility of the coach. Any team with an excellent tradition will have a short or long period of pain after a coaching change. Manchester United is still in this period.

Dunn gave Manchester United a blessing, and the former Manchester United coach also blessed him. Ferguson, who has retired at home, talked about the bet between Dunn and Spike in an interview a few days ago, and he expressed his support for Dunn.

"...I have nothing to say, think about Karl Spike's hair and Mark Laurenson's beard..."

The implication is that Tony Dunn will win every bet.

The matter of "betting on the table" was even spread abroad by developed media networks. An Italian TV show also talked about Dunn and Spike betting on the table. One of the guests also talked about Dunn's bet with the Italian media.

"He bet he would go to the Aegean if he lost the Champions League final. I would say that fortunately no one on our side stood up and bet him,'If the forest team wins, I will go to the Aegean.'"

The host laughed: "That's a pity, we lost a very creative and executive live broadcast."

On Chinese Internet forums, some people expressed their opinions on this, and they won the approval and pursuit of many people. He said: "I think saying to Tony Dunn:'Do you dare to bet with me?' is a forbidden sentence. It's like someone in those hot-blooded animations suddenly said:'After this battle, I will return to my hometown and get married.' It is absolutely not to be mentioned. Spike will definitely be unlucky, and immediately post a residence permit!"

The following replies to a group of fans of the Forest team shouting: "I'm **** your lungs, the original poster! Spike, a big SB, has long seen him uncomfortable! See how he eats a table in person!"

Arsenal’s fans are a bit entangled: "Oh, although I don’t like Spike, but I really want to see Uncle Tony eat the table... Okay, I admit that I don’t want my factory because of this. It would be a shame to lose the championship at a table!"

"Manchester United fans sent a congratulatory message. This matter has nothing to do with us..."

"KOP tour group leaves a name. No matter who eats the table, we are all happy."

"The Blues fans are here to visit! If you remember correctly, there is still another game between the Forest and Chelsea? At that time hehe..."

"Let's eat, eat, there are not enough tables and chairs, chairs and sofas and floors...Anyway, I am an AC Milan fan, and the Premier League has the best infighting. I have seen the Premier League dominate the Champions League for a long time!"

"AV Milan fans don't mix up here. This is the Premier League forum. It's nothing in Serie A! In addition, I support Dunn to eat the table! I have seen this arrogant SB not pleasing to the eye!"

"The cousin next door don't make trouble, quality, pay attention to quality..."

"Who told you that I am an Inter Milan fan? I am a Barcelona fan!"

"Oh, it turned out to be Bashou, since it is the Premier League forum, what are your La Liga guys doing?"

"Jute dogs don't come out to be embarrassed!"

The original poster finally showed up: "Damn, this building is crooked, I'm tearful of my face..."

...

Well, this is just an episode, an episode...

Such quarrels occur countless times on the Chinese Internet every day, but they will not affect Britain, which is thousands of miles away.

Bet on things like eating a table is just for everyone to talk about. Even the Forest team will talk about it. Chris Lak will still make fun of Dunn about this matter, but no one is disturbed by this matter at work. Because they were all affected by Dun En's confidence. During the interview, the team members thought that this was a kind of disguised incentive for themselves by the boss.

"Bet on the table? The boss has never lost anyway, I'm not worried..." Bell shook his head.

"This is actually an incentive... The six-point gap is nothing. We have never said that we should give up the league championship. Why do we give up if we have a championship? It is not time to give up. There are still eight rounds of the league. , I think we have a chance to win the championship." Defense general Pepe appeared very confident.

"In order for Mr. Spike to get to the table as we wish, we will work hard to win the league championship." Eastwood said politely with a smile on his face.

George Wood: "We won the championship without betting. Our goal is the championship." He said the voice of the team.

The following day's "Nottingham Evening Post" published the headline: "We take the championship, Carl eats the table". Succinctly and concisely showed the forest team's confidence in winning the championship.
